What is this?

Global’s smash-hit original series Big Brother Canada is back and bigger than ever with Season 4 premiering on Wednesday, March 2 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Hosted by Arisa Cox, the much-anticipated fourth season promises more surprises, more challenges, and more houseguest shenanigans all under the watchful eye of Big Brother.

Recently nominated for a sixth Canadian Screen Award, Big Brother Canada also welcomes the return of an all-new season of the Big Brother Canada Side Show, premiering on Friday, March 4 at 10 p.m. ET on Slice and Saturday, March 5 at 8 p.m. ET on Global. This year, Arisa Cox is joined by panellists Peter Brown (Season 1 houseguest) and Sarah Hanlon (Season 3 winner) who talk through the exploits of the week, analyze game strategy, make predictions, and discuss those oh-so-important showmances.

For die-hard fans, Big Brother Canada After Dark is back seven days a week, where the cameras never stop rolling in the Big Brother Canada house. Viewers can catch all the late-night activity, secret conversations, and backroom alliances beginning Friday, March 4 at 3 a.m. ET on Slice. And for those who still want more #BBCAN4 action, free live feeds from the Big Brother Canada House will also be available on BigBrotherCanada.ca.

“The support viewers have shown Big Brother Canada over the past three seasons has been nothing short of phenomenal,” said Christine Shipton, SVP, Content, Shaw Media. “Last season was the most-watched, most-talked about season yet and in season four we’re taking Canadians on an even wilder ride.”

“Each season we look to raise the bar and give viewers of Big Brother Canada even more riveting surprises and unpredictable turns. Season 4 is no exception — viewers will love what we have in store for them,” said John Brunton, Chairman & CEO, Insight Production Company Ltd.

Following a coast-to-coast casting call, a new group of houseguests are moving into an overhauled Big Brother Canada house outfitted wall-to-wall with cameras and microphones capturing their every move. The houseguests compete for a grand prize of $100,000, a $25,000 gift card from The Brick, and an OxiClean prize pack valued at $10,000 that includes $500 of fabric care products and a $9,500 wardrobe makeover.
